KyleR Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 After having the car washed, liquid waxed and dried the other day, all the imperfections are REALLY showing up now. Nothing I didn't know about, but now looks 10 times worse. I need the bonnet sanded to remove oxidation that Nissan refuse to admit it there for a warranty claim and sprayed, bumper for chips, front fenders need machine polished to correct where I removed those AMAZING V6 badges , drivers door needs a scratch repaired and polished, roof needs sanded and sprayed, passenger door needs polished, passenger rear quarter needs sanded and sprayed, drivers rear quarter needs polished, boot will need sprayed after I remove the OEM spoiler and the rear bumper needs sprayed after I took the mudguards off on fitting the Grids. So, basically I need a full respray I want to keep it black, but not kuro black, something a little different and less boring. So, I need some awesome suggestions of various blacks that arent going to cost the earth like colour change paints that'll cost £3000 in materials along. Any ideas?

DoogyRev Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Probably not going to help, but I remember seeing a really nice Bimmer with a metallic black flecked sort of thing going on, looked really good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wasso Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Black Rose? Best of both worlds and easily supplied from Nissan? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KC350Z Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Black Rose? Best of both worlds and easily supplied from Nissan? +1 Would look great on a 350z Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyleR Posted February 20, 2013 Author Share Posted February 20, 2013 Black Rose? Best of both worlds and easily supplied from Nissan? Is that the 370 colour with a hint of red/maroon? Not sure it will go well with my orange obsession, but it would look good on someone elses 350 I like the idea of flecks in it, would it cost much more for such a paint due to more coats, or it it all in one can so to speak?

Carbon black is nice but always just looks like a very dark blue rather than a black. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AliveBoy Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 There's an Alfa Romeo colour which is a deep black with orange and red flecks in it, its called Metallic etna black I think. I'd have my 350 painted in it If I could. There's a whole car in it and a close up on these links: http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2618/3978685910_71b41a9bc3.jpg http://ih1.redbubble.net/work.4314180.2.flat,550x550,075,f.alfa-romeo-etna-black-paintwork.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to have a look at the Renault one... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
